Virtual Happy Hour

Just because I’m an introvert doesn’t mean I’m a hermit. This work from home self-isolation stuff, while necessary to flatten the curve of new COVID-19 cases, is miserable. The idea of virtual happy hours has arisen to fill the void. The concept has become so popular that The New York Times published an article on how to throw a proper event.

One of my fellow class officers suggested this as a sanity check. About ten of us gathered via Zoom with beverages of choice. Some of the women I’d seen last month in Las Vegas; others weren’t able to attend. The discussion focused on how we and our families were coping with the new abnormal. Most of the celebrants were on the east coast, but three of us were west of the Mississippi. It was a good time. We’ll probably do it again.
